Transplant services

Heart, liver and lung transplants are done out of province with our partners across the country. Our teams provide patient care before transplant and follow-up care when the patient returns.

Does this mean that Manitobans cannot donate organs other than kidneys?

Absolutely not! Using the national registry, the Transplant Manitoba – Gift of Life team works with donor teams across Canada to offer this gift of life. Once an offer has been accepted, arrangements are made to schedule surgery with the arriving team. That team will then return to their hospital where someone is waiting for that life-saving organ.

Contact us if you have a question about a specific organ transplant program in Manitoba.

Organ donation saves lives.

Hundreds of Manitobans are currently waiting for kidney, lung, liver, heart and pancreas transplants.
